Should I get a sous vide machine?

yes, they are rather cheap nowadays and you can make a lot of great dishes with it.

Isn't it just a machine that boil food in a plastic bag? What's stopping you from just using a pot?

Yeah, a vacuum sealer is really useful, but you're also going to need an immersion circulator if you want to cook anything sous vide.

Seeing that you're gay, yes you should.

I have one, and a 600$ vacuum sealer. Yes you should do it-and compare results cooking low fat proteins. I’m making chicken thigh tacos now. Takes 45 mins. Can make 6 lbs if you want and re freeze after it’s cooked. I also vacuum sealed some apple slices in cheap aldi wine for the Chicago bears game.

How low temp. can you go with those things?
Can you use one to maintain a liquid at 38 C for example?
